When it comes to cybersecurity, prevention is vital to successful protection. Having a set plan with strategies and tools to prevent fraud can help avoid and mitigate threats, such as phishing, social media threats, vishing, and mobile app fraud – all of which can result in significant losses for your organization.
Fraudulent attacks continue to plague organizations. According to Fortra research, fraud made up nearly 25% of reported social media attacks for the second straight quarter. Your organization cannot afford to ignore fraud and needs to combat it with advanced digital risk protection.
Effective Fraud Prevention
External fraud prevention is achieved through broad, proactive monitoring, expert-led threat data curation, and complete mitigation of each legitimate threat. Organizations can also leverage threat data to strengthen frontline security defenses and enhance their overall threat intelligence. By enriching their existing internal threat data, they can better identify and address potential threats. It’s also important to continuously update intel on the newest fraud tactics.
Having the proper threat intelligence can also enhance existing security controls and adding threat engagement and disruption can interrupt fraudulent attempts.

Cybercrime Threat Intelligence
Every day, cybercriminals launch thousands of attacks targeting businesses and their customers. To enable these attacks, they use hacked websites, free domains registrations, free hosting, and several other unscrupulous service providers to host phishing sites, malware, and response-based scams. PhishLabs offers threat intelligence feeds containing malicious URLs, domains, emails, and file hashes that have been detected and verified as malicious, using proprietary automated methods and expert analysis. Targeted enterprises can use these high-fidelity intelligence feeds to block access to attack sites and add context to their security analytics, improving attack detection and preventing compromise. Service providers and hosting companies can use this intelligence to detect malicious content hosted in their networks and data centers. Additionally, security vendors can integrate this data to enhance the protection delivered by their products and services. Learn more about our Intelligence Feeds.

PhishLabs proactively monitors crimeware operations and detects those targeting our customers.
